Hasty Bush Sing-Out from Lawyers

Just in the rare possibility that you don't pore over the comments on posts here, a singing attorney left a winner yesterday on the GOP fabulists one. I'll embed the vid below.

It's a good-riddance wish from Matt Farmer (yeah, for real) from the Blue State Cowboys in Chicago. They bill themselves as Chicago's Most Litigious Band. Listening seems to be free and there are additional goodies on their site.

In the country tradition of get-lost songs (extraordinarily well deserved in W's case), the lawyers sing:

CRAWL BACK TO CRAWFORD(Matt Farmer)

VERSEWell, for eight long years we’ve been payin’ your rentBut now your lease done runAnd all our money’s been spentSo pack up your bagsAnd take a last look aroundAt how you drove a great nation straight into the ground

CHORUSAnd don’t let the doorHit you in the ass on the way outDon’t bother with the goodbyesJust make sure that you stay outThere ain’t no need to callNo need to writeWe don’t even need you to turn out the lightJust crawl back to Crawford, brotherPromise that you’ll leave us alone

VERSEEvery step of the way, your story’s been the sameJust cruisin’ through the worldOn your daddy’s nameYou had the oilmen friendsYou had the Skull and BonesBut it never would have happened if your name was Jones

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGESlam dunk, privatize, deregulateTax cuts, trickle downThe politics of hateFlag pin, waterboardIntelligent designYou were handed your throne by just five of the nine
